Welcome to the INSIDE CHINA BASIN Baseball Podcast

Updated once a week on TheSportsVirus.com!

For our first Inside China Basin podcast of 2020 our special guest is former Giants LHP Jeremy Affeldt who helped San Francisco win three World Series titles. We chat about life after baseball, the Astros cheating scandal, the new minimum three-batter rule and Aubrey Huff not being invited to the Giants reunion for the 2010 team. We also take a trip down memory lane and reminisce about some of Jeremy’s best moments in the 2012 and 2014 World Series.

Welcome to the INSIDE CHINA BASIN Giants Podcast

Updated 3 times a  week on TheSportsVirus.com!

We talk about the state of the Giants bullpen with former Giants lefty Jeremy Affeldt who now serves as an analyst for Comcast SportsNet Bay Area.

AFFELDT

 

 The Sports Virus talked to Affeldt about late inning relief for the Giants this season:

… “Because of the youth of the pen you don’t know your identity. Are we going to get a shutdown game? Are we going to get a panic scenario?… It’s about walking out and knowing who you are and saying to yourself, ‘I’m a Major League bullpen backend guy. When I go out you’re not supposed to beat me.’ The game is supposed to be over. That’s why you throw your 7th, 8th, 9th inning guys because it IS over…These guys are just missing that because they lack the experience.”

Jor Castellano interview Gregor Blanco The Sports Virus

 

 Kontos tells The Sports Virus that “you’re not going to be able to replace a Jeremy Affeldt. My locker was next to his every day I ever spent in the Major Leagues with Giants. I’m going to miss him. I know the team is going to miss him. His experiences and his knowledge about the game really helped me and molded me into the pitcher that I’ve become in the Major Leagues now.”
